Bake Geometry Textures defaults to DirectX normals? March 24, 2026, 10:21 p.m.

Bake Geometry Textures defaults to DirectX normals? March 24, 2026, 11:29 a.m.
Hi!
It is indeed very painful that Karma expects the opposite.
It was a hard decision, but ultimately it just didn't make sense for a COP to output Normals that are alien to the rest of what Copernicus expects.
Since this Baker was intended to also cater towards Games, we considered that Unreal Engine also expects 'Green Down' DirectX Normals.
